World’s biggest selling champagne

>> Thursday, August 21, 2008

a0617-217-1770- Moët & Chandon – 2640 (thousand cases @ 9l) (owned by Moët Hennessy, LVMH)
- Veuve Clicquot – 1658 (owned by Moët Hennessy, LVMH)
- Nicolas Feuillatte – 750
- GH Mumm – 600 (owned by Pernod Ricard)
- Piper-Heidsieck – 588
- Laurent-Perrier – 571
- Taittinger – 458
- Lanson – 417
- Pommery – 417
- Perrier-Jouët – 200 (owned by Pernod Ricard)

Which means that LVMH, who owns the top two brands, sells more than all the others on the list put together.

The top ten sellers add up to 100 million bottles. From memory (and this may not be entirely accurate - we're on vacation without library access), 300 million bottles are sold each year. If so, the top two LVMH brands (not counting other brands they own) account for 15% of all champagne sales.
